Chapter 1955: Chapter 1891: Eerie Marksmanship
Chiang Xiao’s entire body stiffened.
Earlier, she had been feeling lucky, not sensing that Meng Xinian was in any danger, because he carried the peace charm she had drawn; if there was truly danger, she would be able to sense it.
But she never expected her words to come true like a curse!
Now she could already feel it, Meng Xinian was in danger!
The Talisman Diagram, the peace charm he wore on his body, must have shattered!
Chiang Xiao pressed one hand to her chest, her legs becoming somewhat stiff.
Sensing that Meng Xinian was in mortal danger, her heart felt like it was stabbed with a knife, paining her, her body becoming somewhat stiff and limp.
"Brother Xinian..."
Chiang Xiao mumbled, snapping awake suddenly.
No, she can’t be in a daze; she must find him quickly, she must get to his side as fast as possible!
The Talisman Diagram is already broken and can’t protect him anymore, but what if he’s still in danger?
His skills are so formidable, yet he’s still in danger, indicating that he’s encountered a very difficult situation. Is it people, or is it the place that’s dangerous?
Chiang Xiao’s heart tightened completely, immediately rushing forward.
After running a bit further, she arrived at a more bustling area, with streets in all directions, lights appearing more frequently, and many open shops around, many of which were taverns, others whose purposes she couldn’t discern, with either no signs or ones with difficult names.
She knew she had truly arrived in this district’s nightlife hub.
Also, the most chaotic center.
Yet upon arriving here, she still couldn’t find Meng Xinian’s signs.
Standing at the intersection, Chiang Xiao was already covered in snowflakes.
But the cold on her body was nothing compared to the cold in her heart.
Standing here, how was she supposed to find Meng Xinian?
Here, there are at least dozens of places resembling taverns and small casinos; does she have to search each one by one? If she searches like this, and runs into another oblivious fool wasting her time, how will she find Meng Xinian?
Chiang Xiao’s heart was racing so fast it felt like it would leap out.
If she doesn’t quickly reach Meng Xinian’s side, she’s truly afraid he might meet further danger, afraid she might be too late!
Before her eyes, snowflakes blurred her vision, and as she looked around, the lights were dazzling.
Chiang Xiao had never felt such panic.
Clearly, she roughly knew Meng Xinian was in this area, knew he was in danger, but she just didn’t know how to find him!
Didn’t know how to reach his side!
Chiang Xiao was so anxious that her eyes were turning red.
And at this very moment, Meng Xinian was hiding sideways within the gap of some wooden planks, his chest heaving, sweat from his forehead dripping into his eyes, causing him to shut them briefly.
He could hear his own breathing, somewhat heavy.
In his hand, he tightly clutched the pendant that had just fallen from his neck.
That pendant was already somewhat damaged, and he knew the peace charm Chiang Xiao had placed inside had shattered.
Yet holding it still gave off some warmth.
She had saved him once more.
Just now, if not for this peace charm, he would have been shot in the heart.
The opponent was a man whose marksmanship was so precise it was almost eerie.
Just now, he should have dodged it, but that bullet still came toward his heart, as if it had slightly curved mid-air, tracking him.
Meng Xinian had never encountered such a situation.
He had, of course, seen sharpshooters before, but this level far exceeded his previous understanding of a sharpshooter.
